Covering Littlehampton
We work in Littlehampton (BN17) and the places around it, including Bognor Regis, Worthing and Chichester.
Homes in the South East
Housing across the South East mixes inter-war semis, post-war estates and older cottages in villages and market towns, so rear and side extensions, hip-to-gable lofts and garage conversions all come up regularly.
What is a house renovation?
We survey the house to find what really needs doing, from damp and roof condition to wiring age, then programme the work so the messy trades (structure, first-fix, plaster) happen before the finishing trades. A single contract avoids the gaps that appear when separate trades are booked independently.
- Condition survey and scope of works
- Rewiring, heating and plumbing
- Plastering, joinery, kitchen and bathrooms
What will a house renovation cost?
Use these ranges to budget for house renovations; the survey turns them into a fixed price for the agreed specification.
| House renovations | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Light refurbishment | £600 to £1,000 per m² |
| Full renovation | £1,000 to £1,800 per m² |
| Structural renovation and remodel | £1,800 to £2,800 per m² |
Do you need permission for a house renovation in Littlehampton?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
Internal work like this does not usually need planning permission unless the house is listed or your permitted development rights have been removed.
What should Littlehampton homeowners check first?
- Older houses can hide timber decay and damp, so we allow a contingency.
- Living in during a full renovation is difficult; most people move out for part of it.
What happens after I enquire?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
Your questions answered
Can we live in the house during a renovation?
For a light refurbishment, often yes. For a full or structural renovation, most people move out for at least part of the work.
How long does a renovation take?
About 8 to 30 weeks on site depending on scope.
Who deals with the council for a project in Littlehampton?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
